"A view towards" is not the same as "because of". Because of looks back.

Water does NOT wash away sins anymore than water healed Naaman but faith in what the man of God said healed him of his leprousy when he dipped according to the SAYING of the man of God. Did that make the prophet a healer?

The reference in John 20 isn't a reference to baptism. It's mirrored quite well in something Matthew wrote. Compare the two:
John 20:21-23
21Then said Jesus to them again, Peace be unto you: as my Father hath sent me, even so send I you.
22And when he had said this, he breathed on them, and saith unto them, Receive ye the Holy Ghost:
23Whose soever sins ye remit, they are remitted unto them; and whose soever sins ye retain, they are retained.
Matthew 18:15-18
15Moreover if thy brother shall trespass against thee, go and tell him his fault between thee and him alone: if he shall hear thee, thou hast gained thy brother.
16But if he will not hear thee, then take with thee one or two more, that in the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established.
17And if he shall neglect to hear them, tell it unto the church: but if he neglect to hear the church, let him be unto thee as an heathen man and a publican.
18Verily I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever ye shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.
Jesus is essentially referencing in John 20 what he had taught them earlier as found in Matthew 18. This has nothing to do with baptism.
We almost make preachers little popes. I fear we're becoming "Cathostolic".

Dan our problem has NEVER been what Christ accomplished on the cross you and I both know this our difference is HOW we appropriate what was made available on the cross. The cross is the crux of salvation and redemption through the Holy Blood of Jesus. You guys build a strawman. Why not just really say what we believe?
I have said over and over "That remission of sins in this dispensation only takes place in water baptism in Jesus Name for the penitent."

No not so new.... just not something my experience relates to.
I am shooting from a different perspective though.
I have a question for three steppers... When one sins and becomes repentant, post the three steps, on what grounds is he granted repentance?

John and Matthew are NOT the same setting.

SE please show me where ALL NT baptisms were done by "preachers"..then while at it, define preachers using scriptures....
Then define layman using scriptures....the problem is it's not there. There is no special class division in scriptures of preachers/laymen (have nots)
